“It’s a wholly modern 2600 game that’s actually fun and as awesomely weird as old 2600 games like Frankenstein’s Monster.
Rather than control a duck, you’re in control of a robot who invades a mad scientist’s lab and tries to destroy his army of fire-breathing,
nuclear-egg-laying mallards. Both the ducks and the robot are crafted with an impressive amount of detail for the 2600,
somehow coaxing a new look out of an ancient machine.”

My Periodic Table of U.S. Presidents got a mention from the fun magazine
mental_floss, which lists it alongside eight other parody periodic tables,
including a Periodic Table of The Empire Strikes Back Elements, a periodic table of cupcakes and a periodic table of Minecraft, among others.

The 2600 retrogame Duck Attack! (2010) features a mallard named Bruce, and additionally
a grey variant named Mandy, a gold variant named Pat, a blue variant named Groucho, and a ruddy variant named Clarice.

Well, the presidential election is over, which means it’s time for me to update the Periodic Table of U.S. Presidents.
This is a whimsical but educational chart that features facts about the 44 American presidents from George Washington to Barack Obama, in the style of the famous Periodic Table
of the Elements. If you’re a history buff, a political science fan, or just someone who likes colorful boxes arranged to look like sciency stuff, you might enjoy this little bit of fun.
